Back in 1990, this station pioneered high-power
community radio. 50,000 watts, serving Mistissini and the Chibougamau
and Chapais area of the James Bay inland area of northern Quebec, it
brought Cree-language programming to the region.

CINI/FM Mistissini reaches a potential
audience of 15,000 and is the only local commercial FM in the area.

Founded by Buckley
Petawabano, it is now operated by the Lake Mistissini Telecommunications
Association. The turntables and clocks have now gone digital, the transmitter
has been replaced, but the music keeps on coming.... CINI/FM ismanaged by Jimmy Iserhoff. Tel: (418) 923-3333
